Better late than never was the sentiment of the night as fans on the blue carpet and on twitter not so patiently waited the arrival of Stana Katic.
Stana's date for the evening was her mother, who beamed on from the carpet with palpable pride for her little girl.
Stana was a vision in a blue gown by Yigal Azrouel.
Stana has always been a champion of experimental and independent film. Her 2011 film "For Lovers Only" was labeled as an 'experimental film' to wave Stana's SAG fee. Stana believed in the message of Mark Polish's vision enough to complete the 12 day shoot providing her own wardrobe, all unpaid. "A lot of the riskier stories are being told by the independent film world, and I love that!"
Stana completed her night by attending the ultra private Night Before Party at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
Stana's rushed arrival lead to the only downside of the evening. After making sure she made time for fans, the photographers for the event felt unsatisfied by her time on the carpet and began to boo her, with one sole member shouting out to, "Leave her alone!" Not only did this show their level of classlessness, but it also showed how unfeeling the majority of those in the profession are. I am not alone in my feelings or opinions of distaste for their behavior. To show such disrespect for not only her in that moment, but to do it in front of her mother was deplorable. Stana continued to be the epitome of grace, as she returned to the photo line to satisfy those who jeered her, though her brilliant smile was noticeably diminished.
On a much brighter note, there are hopes that Stana will attend the Academy awards tonight. Fingers crossed!
